My Maytag Model LAT8624AAE won't agitate after fill. The wife says if she sets the timer on pre-soak, it will do the little "pre-soak agitate dance" (a short agitation to mix the soap, water and clothes, I assume.), but then will not agitate once the timer progresses beyond the pre-soak period. Other than this pre-soak condition, it will not agitate on any cycle (Permanent Press, Regular, Gentle, etc.). Since I am temporarily disabled, I have to take my wife's word on it. Otherwise, I would love to help her out with the laundry.

The water will spin out, so I assume the lid switch is OK. Any ideas where to start looking?
